Abstract: Device for connecting a sensor, which has a conical sealing cone and an external screwthread in front of the sealing cone, to a high-pressure component, comprising a bore and a connection line in the high-pressure component, wherein the bore has an internal screwthread and the end face of the bore is joined to the connection line via a conical sealing cone, further comprising a hollow pressure screw with an external screwthread which is designed to engage in the internal screwthread of the bore, wherein the pressure screw has an internal screwthread which is designed so as to engage in the external screwthread of the sensor, wherein the external screwthread and internal screwthread of the pressure screw run in opposite directions, so that the sensor sealing cone and the end face of the bore can be pressed against each other by screwing the pressure screw into the bore of the high-pressure component.

Abstract: The invention relates to a biaxial stretch tubular film with five layers and which may be shrunk and sealed, for the packaging and covering of meat, meat with bones or paste-like foodstuffs and use thereof. Said tubular film comprises an inner layer made from a hot-sealing polyolefin and/or modified polyolefin, a core layer made from polyolefin and an outer layer made from at least one polyamide, whereby a further layer made from polyolefin and/or modified polyolefin is arranged between the inner layer and the core layer and between the core layer and the outer layer.

Abstract: The invention relates to a biaxial stretch tubular film with at least five layers and which may be shrunk and sealed, for the packaging and covering of meat, meat with bones or paste-like foodstuffs and use thereof. Said tubular film has the first four layers thereof, counting from the inside out, made from at least one polyolefin and/or modified polyolefin. A layer or several layers follow on said layers which are made from polyvinylidene chloride copolymer and/or polyamide and/or ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer and/or polyolefin and/or modified polyolefin.
